Hey All,
First time on the forum and definitely an eager newbie to the depth of a lot of these concepts. I am simultaneously learning about the COR and seeing it play out in Christ’s teachings in the book of John. It’s great stuff. While I am also building a relationship with a Jehovahs Witness with whom I am starting to have open dialogue about the Bible. So I see that Christ submitted himself to the Father because of the COR and not because he is inferior or not God himself. (Or at least that’s how I understand it)
Where would you guys reference preincarnate Christ passages in the Bible to to show his eternal worth as God himself to be able to back up my position to a JW?
From there I think it would be easy to explain Christ’s submissive language in John as a beautiful picture of him walking out the COR.
Thanks!
